Global "Fix this" poll.
Added 2018-02-15 19:14:15 +0000 UTCHello guys, I want to ask your opinion about League of Corruption's weakest point. LoC is up on the Patreon for more than half a year and is still struggling with player's interest and support.
We are well past the "make more content and people will get to you" point - were adding new features, scenes and story pieces each month. The last update has 2 animated scenes yet still failed to provoke any meaningful interest from the community. This means we have a big problem in LoC's core: narrative or art. I tried my best to improve various aspects of the game but failed to find and fix the main issue. That's why I'm asking you, players, directly.
There are some improvements I would like to add like more erotic pictures aside from full scenes yet it might not be enough. I'm ready to make some drastic changes like reworking the narrative for some story fragments or switching to another drawing style like anime. I don't want to abandon LoC but with its current dynamics the games is slowly withering without player's support.
Don't be shy and give me your thoughts via the poll. Feel free to message me a more detailed answer either through Patreon direct message or yeehawgames@gmail.com

The art is awesome and i think the game play is easy enough, so i am not sure where it lacks as i like the game a lot..

2018-02-16 07:24:36 +0000 UTCOkay, as of now, the last option is winning by a bit, so I'll try to explain from my own perspective what could be improved about the art. Anyone that disagrees are free to say so and come with other ideas. Anyways, while the actual art is top tier, and likely amongst the highest quality in terms of games, it has a problem where the characters and the background blend together. Likely due to having no hard outline, but sometimes, it can be "hard" to perceive whats background and foreground. Now obviously, unless you're downright dumb, you know what is what, but the characters still blend into it. In general, the characters would do good with just being sharper in general. Not having outlines are fantastic for standalone pictures, but doesn't work well for games cause even on a static picture, the fact that you're playing as the character makes it feel alive in a way a random picture just cant. Unfortunately, right now, the pictures lack that feeling cause the pictures blend together like a painting, not like a game character on a background. Secondarily, while I know how similar the girls are, they still look too similar facial feature wise. You actually have 3 different races, so they should differentiate feature wise pretty hard. Ashe's face would likely have to be slightly slimmer then ahris and nids. Nordic girls (if thin) in general just have slimmer and therefore "taller" faces than the rest of the world. I'd also (very minuscule detail) make sure the bridge of her nose is thinner compared to the rest, its pretty defining for some reason. Nidalee's facial features (nose, eyes are actually pretty good, though her jawbone is too far down. She is based off of an indian girl, and even in her own splash arts, she tends to have a very sharp mentum (part of chin right below the lips). Almost like a reverse raindrop (Obviously not exactly, but it gives an image). Ahri is actually pretty spot on. She is asian, and the girls all look asian facial wise, so i cant really point anything out here - But at the same time it would explain why i initially liked ahri better than the rest, despite being a bigger fan of Ashe. Thirdly, again with the races, You'd probably want to make use of that in their skin color. I dont know if there is a story here mind you. This refers to the skin color of the girls. Nidalee would likely need to be darker than the rest. I'm not talking as dark as an actual indian girl, but enough that she would be considered tanned without a doubt. I don't know why you left them out, but personally I'd add the white claw looking marks that nid has all over her body, though that only makes sense if you chose to make her darker. Ashe is the opposite. She is from a country where the sun basically doesnt shine and there's snow year around. She is too dark, and given how she is supposed to be a queen and all, i'd say her skin would likely have to be close to white (Not completely obviously, but close). At least she has to be significantly whiter than Ahri. Ahri: It's kinda funny, but again, ahri is perfect here. Normally, i'd say that she is too European in her skin color, but that is how she looks in league, and in this game too it looks perfect. - Also, this is more of a markedting tip, but i'd suggest making patreon-only polls available for $1 patreons. Patreon actually works kinda backwards, people are willing to pledge high amounts, but all data i've ever looked at shows that the higher prices are for different things, the most people simply do not pledge. Actually, there is a direct correlation between how high patreon growth is and how cheap it is. Take Akabur for example. The dude releases something every 5 months, and rarely even shows that he is alive. Everything he does is free, and yet he has a gargantuan amount of patreons - and its not like his art is the best, though not bad in any way either. Sunsetriders7 went from 15 to 10 to 5 dollars for their game, and every time they started to earn more money than previously. Obviously im not saying "make everything free", but as the poll was created out of concern for low patreon growth, i think it was appropriate. - I guess thats everything i can say. I'm always interested in people starting up or people that are still in early phases, so whenever possible I try to help them. Hope some of this wall can help you.
